    So many good recollections of how well the Academy lads did in this competition over years past. Kind of wistful then to read today that Southampton were the club from England to be invited this year.

    And the inevitable, what if only this group had been given the opportunity, not to mention the experience

    Fantastic News .. Southampton have withdrawn .. to be replaced by Fulham

    No harm intended towards Southampton whose Academy record speaks for itself, but what an accolade for the Fulham Academy that the Dallas Cup organisers swiftly opted to call our lads up. This will be some opportunity for our U18s.

    "The Dr Pepper Dallas Cup, the oldest and most prestigious international youth soccer tournament in the United States, has announced the return of former champion Fulham F.C. to the tournament’s elite Gordon Jago Super Group. Dr Pepper Dallas Cup XXXVII will take place from March 20 – 27, 2016."

    Just look at those young faces. Would be interesting to plot where they all are now.
